Porcine Initiation

Charity begins with pork.

That at least is how Millard Fuller biographies describe the growth of Habitat for Humanity. His dad gave him a pig and tutored him how to make money from it. That knowledge led to fabulous business success by the age of 30 and, via a circuitous path, helped him create communities within communities that provide houses for underprivileged and others in need.

Fuller had an acrimonious split with HforH and built up the Fuller Center for Housing, in turn providing a business structure for his four children to live in, as well as their spouses and perhaps even his grandchildren.
